Hi everyone,
Viva Vauxhall were overwhelmingly given a mandate at the recent public meeting to campaign alongside individual protesters in objecting to the current Bondway Tower proposal.
We’ve already made a start by writing to Prince Charles, Boris Johnson and Kate Hoey to elicit their support and Ben, our IT guru, will be adding a discussion forum to the blog as well as a Bondway twitter feature to provide a rolling update of what’s happening.
But to mount any sort of effective campaign, we are going to need your help in areas such as:
– liaising with other residents’ organisations and groups who also oppose the current Bondway Tower proposal
– liaising with Lambeth Council (it’s not such hard work once you break through their outer defences)
– general and specific research
– flyering
– organising local meetings
– door-to-door lobbying (for instance, to get residents to attend a public hearing. Really important, they do!)
– lobbying the great and the good
– you name it – there’s a need for it!
Of course, if you want to become actively involved in managing this campaign with us – that’s even better.
So, let me know. All offers of help – general or specific – most welcome. E-mail me at no2bondway@vivavauxhall.org
